Welcome Guys, and thanks for checking out my first ever (uploaded) ship, I tried to make this ship look somewhat like "The Kestrel" and made some background lore for it, I wanted to make a ship that was a "classic" cruiser for the federations (like the T model from ford?). It took me relatively a short amount of time, take in mind there's still a lot of things to be fixed and updates, I've been thinking taking the detail on the hull to the next level by adding some "rust" throughout the ship to make it look like an "old" ship. Since the start of the creation of this ship, I wanted to make this ship to have a " experience" by getting rid of the shields (there's also another download for a "Thunderbolt" with shields), and it makes FTL have another gameplay aspect. Of course you could buy some shields at a store or something or install the Shield Edition (AKA EDITION) but playing with no shields makes the game a lot more harder. The clonebay is mean't to be used each time a crew member dies, your only mission is to get your hull to survive throughout your journey, also this ship is meant to be played on the mod "Captain's Edtion" as it adds a lot of new augments which will make the "" mode a bit more tolerable, it also improves FTL overall!

Of course you could buy some shields at a store or something or install the Shield Edition (AKA "EASY" EDITION) but playing with no shields makes the game a lot more harder.

So yeaaah...I also added a little poem on the ship description cuz idk it felt good to do it.About bug fixes and stuff to fix or add:- The Guns (They are hidden within the ship)- Clonebay not available on the ship when you start at the mode- Get some better hull details (like rust and some other stuff)- Add some better floor textures- Get better positioning of the ship (on the game screen)- Add Gibs!

And that's pretty much it for the next things I need to work on!
